Decoding Keto, Vegan, and Spice levels for every single dip on the CAVA menu.
Which dips keep you in strict ketosis?
The biggest mistake keto dieters make at Mediterranean restaurants is assuming all dips are keto-friendly. Hummus is NOT strictly keto. Because hummus is made from chickpeas (a legume), it contains a higher amount of carbohydrates that can quickly add up and break ketosis if you aren\'t carefully measuring portions.
Crazy Feta is universally considered the ultimate keto dip due to its high fat (6g) and minimal net carb profile.
Harissa contains 5g of carbs per tiny scoop. Hummus requires strict portion control.
Navigating dairy on the spread line.
While the Hummus options are completely vegan, be aware they contain sesame. If you are a vegan with a sesame allergy, your only safe choice is the Roasted Eggplant or Harissa.
From mild flavors to intense chili pastes.
A traditional North African paste. This is pure, intense chili pepper heat. It does not have cream or cheese to cool it down. Highly recommended to pair alongside Tzatziki.
Infused with jalapeños. It definitely has a notable kick, but the heavy dairy fat from the feta cheese immediately coats the mouth and significantly mellows the burn.
